Medical History

Medical history:

A person wanting to hold a Weapons Act licence or any existing licence holder must demonstrate that they are “fit and proper” to hold a licence.

In determining a person’s “fit and proper” status for the issue of a licence an Authorised Officer must also consider their medical history.

Doctor’s certificate:

If you are required to provide a doctor’s certificate from your treating medical specialist to certify that your condition does not affect your ability to possess or use a weapon, you should upload a copy of this certificate as part of your online application. Please ensure that the specialist’s name and contact details are clearly indicated on the certificate.
